The hype
Travelers love the views and the massive breakfast buffet but consistently complain about dated furniture and dusty air conditioning.
Смело бронируйте, если You want the bragging rights of sleeping in a skyscraper and endless shopping at your doorstep, but don't mind 1990s decor.
Краткий обзор: A fading icon that trades on its height and location while the interiors remain stubbornly stuck in 1998.
Подтверждено @MARYBlaireABARQUEZ4149929: I stayed in this towering icon and the city views from my room were absolutely insane. It has a fun retro charm, and being right above the markets was super convenient. Waking up to that skyline made me feel like royalty on a budget.

The 'VIP' treatment feels mass-market; expect long queues for elevators and a lobby that feels like a train station.
“I am requesting a room in the Space Zone (Floors 64-74), specifically a North-facing unit for the Victory Monument view. Please ensure the room is far from the elevator bank to minimize noise.”
Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.
Yes. It is on the 20th floor and surrounded by a high safety wall. You can see the sky, but you cannot see the city while swimming.
Catastrophic. Pratunam is one of Bangkok's worst choke points. Taxis will demand flat rates (200-300 THB) for short trips. Walk to the main road or use the train.
It's quantity over quality. The spread is massive (Asian, Western, Halal), and the view from the 81st/82nd floor is great, but the food quality is average cafeteria level.
Rarely free. They run a tight ship with tour groups arriving early. Expect to pay an hourly fee if you stay past 11 AM.
Some 'Space Zone' rooms had a soft refresh (new carpets/paint) around 2023, but the furniture and bathrooms remain largely original from the late 90s.
Yes, it's a 5-minute walk to Ratchaprarop Station (Airport Rail Link), which takes you directly to Suvarnabhumi (BKK) in ~25 minutes.
Use the 'Hotel Guest' elevators to bypass the long queues of tourists waiting for the observatory lifts.
The 'Fruit Buffet' on the 18th floor is a weird but fun way to try exotic Thai fruits like durian and mangosteen without buying whole ones.
Walk to 'Bar9' at the nearby Novotel Platinum for a rooftop drink with a view but without the chaotic crowds of Baiyoke's own rooftop bar.
